Why a Registered Office Makes Sense
A Quick Verification Before We Begin

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Registered Office Service FAQs
What is a registered office?
It is the official address of your company on the Companies House register. Formal notices and legal documents can be delivered there, and it is shown publicly.
Does it protect my home address?
It lets you use a business address instead of your home address as the company's registered office. Companies House may still need your residential address separately where the law requires it.
What mail will you receive?
Official correspondence addressed to your company, such as letters from Companies House and HMRC, subject to our service terms.
What if I want all my company post received?
The registered office service is intended for official mail. If you also want general business post, you will need our Virtual Office service, which is bought separately.
Is this the same as a director's service address?
No. A registered office is the company's address. A director's service address is for an individual director. They can be the same address or different ones.
Can sole traders use it?
No, registered offices apply to limited companies. Sole traders may be able to use our Virtual Office service instead.
Do you accept parcels?
No. We accept letters and official documents only.
Can I use one subscription for several companies?
Each company needs its own subscription.
Can I use this for a company that already exists?
Yes. We'll help you update the registered office on your company record.
How will I know when mail arrives?
We email you when official mail arrives, so you always know what has been received.
What does it cost?
£39.99 per year. Any forwarding or postage charges depend on the service terms.
Do you forward my mail?
Yes, on request. We post it first class to the address you give us. You pay the postage and envelope cost plus a 50p admin fee, and we only post when you ask.
